'A book which had me giggling, snorting and welling up!
Reading a Susie Kelly book is like sitting down for a cuppa and a chat with your best friend...your funny, witty, generous, big-hearted, kind, eloquent, compassionate, intuitive, sometimes poignant, often hilarious best friend. Susie has an incredible gift for sharing the 'laughs' and 'tears' of her life in France, of the many people she encounters and of the human condition in general. I could read her books for hours on end! Bravo Susie - another corker!' Author Tanya Bullock
As the world's worst housekeeper, running holiday homes wasn't, with hindsight, a sensible idea. But two collapsing buildings on Susie Kelly's land would cost more to demolish than to restore. Thus she became a seasonal landlady. But before the guests came the builders. No's 1, 2, 3 all started promisingly, but by builder No. 4, and with her first guests just hours away, Susie's patience was stretched to its limit.
Her summer and winter visitors couldn't, as they say, be made up, though, to spare their blushes some of them have been air-brushed. They brought with them laughter, tears, romance, friendship and occasional madness. And they all left behind jars of jam and pots of pepper. From them Susie learned that you don't need to travel to find adventure. If you run holiday homes it comes to your doorstep. Unfortunately for Susie, this included Ivy. The cleaning lady from hell.
